Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wire holder for holding at least one electrical wire of a lamp.
  • An electric lamp has electrical wires for powering its light source. It is known to hold these wires in a specific, desired position by means of wire holders on or in the luminaire.
  • the wire holders are fixed to a further lighting component, for example to a light well or to a mounting plate.
  • this further luminaire component is also called “carrier component” for the sake of simplicity, in order to express that it "carries" the wire holder.
  • the “carrier component” can fulfill even more functions.
  • such wire holders are used in elongate lighting modules of continuous-row lighting systems, the wires being guided predominantly in the longitudinal direction of the lighting modules in or on them by means of the wire holders.
  • Such a wire holder is fixed with a latching connection to the carrier component, namely in that a connecting element of the wire holder engages latching in a corresponding opening of the carrier component.
  • the wires are usually introduced by means of a robot in the wire holder.
  • the robot leads the wires from one wire holder to the next. If the robot moves through a wire holder during this placement with a robot blade, high transverse forces can be exerted on the relevant wire holder. Therefore, the fixation of the wire holder on the support member must be so stable that the wire holder can withstand corresponding transverse forces and especially not tilting; Of course, the wire holder should not turn over too much.
  • a wire holder which has two connecting elements in the form of two "snap feet", each engaging in an opening of the support member; In this way, the fixation of the wire holder on the support member is correspondingly stable.
  • the wire holder has two snap feet, its production associated with a relatively high cost.
  • the production of the support member requires an increased effort, because per wire holder two corresponding openings must be made in the support member. Such openings are usually formed by punching, the corresponding punching time is often decisive for the clock in the production of the support member. Overall, therefore, the effort in producing a corresponding lamp is increased by the known stable wire holder.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a wire holder or a lamp that requires less effort in the production of the lamp with sufficient stability of the wire holder.
  • a wire holder for holding at least one electric wire of a lamp, wherein the wire holder is further provided to be fixed to a receiving opening having a component of the lamp.
  • the wire holder has an abutment element which is intended to be applied from one side to an edge region of the receiving opening, as well as a connecting element which is intended to latchingly engage in the receiving opening for fixing the wire holder to the component;
  • the connecting element is designed such that it is not circular in a section along a plane in which the receiving opening is when the wire holder is fixed as intended on the component, is not circular.
  • the wire holder can be fixed to the component with only one connecting element and thereby sufficiently secured against rotation and stabilized.
  • the wire holder need not have two snap feet, so that the production of the wire holder is facilitated.
  • only one receiving opening is required for fixing the wire holder in the component, so that it is easier to manufacture the component.
  • a correspondingly high stability of the wire holder is of particular importance, if it is provided that the wire is robotically introduced into the wire holder for the production of the lamp; However, there are advantages in other cases, such as manual wire insertion.
  • the connecting element is designed such that it defines in the section a rectangular shape, for example a square shape. This allows a comparatively simple production.
  • the connecting element has a web with an origin on the contact element, wherein the web tapers convergently starting from the origin.
  • the web is advantageously designed such that it is in a further section along a further plane which is oriented perpendicular to the plane of the receiving opening, Y-shaped or V-shaped.
  • the bridge can be made particularly stable.
  • the connecting element has at least one latching arm, which is arranged at an origin opposite end portion of the web and which is provided for locking the wire holder from another, the first side opposite side latching against a further edge region of the receiving opening to grab.
  • the abutment element has a concave surface, wherein the origin of the web is arranged in a central region of the concave surface. hereby a force applied to a spring force fixation of the wire holder is made possible on the component.
  • the abutment element has a diameter which is at least twice as large, preferably at least three times as large as the diameter of the connecting element.
  • a particularly high security against twisting of the wire holder relative to the component can be achieved.
  • a transverse force, which acts on the wire holder, for example in the context of a robot-supported loading of the wire holder with the wire, can be intercepted in this way by the wire holder particularly well.
  • the abutment element is shaped such that it sealingly surrounds the receiving opening closed in an annular manner with respect to the first-mentioned edge region when the wire holder is fixed to the component as intended. In this way, penetration of dust or the like through the receiving opening can be prevented or at least significantly reduced. This is important, for example, if the component is a luminaire trough and electrical components are arranged on the side of the luminaire trough opposite the wire, which must be protected from dust. Overall, this contributes to the fact that the luminaire can be designed with a higher degree of protection.
  • the wire holder is made of plastic. In this way, it has a certain elasticity, which is advantageous for the latching connection with the component.
  • a luminaire which has a wire holder according to the invention and the component having the receiving opening, wherein the wire holder is fixed to the component as intended.
  • the receiving opening has a shape that prevents rotation of the connecting element in the receiving opening.
  • the receiving opening can be designed as a slot or ellipse. It can be with the component For example, be a luminaire housing, a lamp cover or a mounting plate.
  • the wire holder according to the invention shown in the figures is suitable for holding at least one, by way of example in FIG Fig. 2 designated wire 20 a luminaire.
  • the wire holder is intended to be fixed to a "carrier component", hereinafter also briefly component 12 of the lamp.
  • component 12 it may in particular, as in the FIGS. 1 to 4 shown to act a light bulb. But it can also be another component, for example, a lamp housing or a mounting plate.
  • the component 12 has a, exemplified in Fig. 4 designated, receiving opening 10 which is provided for fixing the wire holder or serves.
  • Fig. 9 is a perspective sketch of the wire holder shown in separated form.
  • the wire holder has a contact element 2, which is intended to be applied from one side to an edge region of the receiving opening 10.
  • a contact element 2 is intended to be applied from one side to an edge region of the receiving opening 10.
  • an inner area and an outer area are formed by the luminaire tub; the FIGS. 1 to 3 each show views from the outside of the luminaire tub, Fig. 4 a view of the interior.
  • the contact element 2 is intended to be applied from the outside to an edge region of the receiving opening 10, as in the FIGS. 2 to 3 designated by way of example.
  • FIGS. 4 and 9 denotes, the wire holder on a connecting element 4, which is intended to engage the fixing of the wire holder on the component 12 latching in the receiving opening 10.
  • the wire holder may include a wire holding means 22, which serves to hold the wire 20.
  • the wire holding means 22 may be formed by two wire holding arms, as shown in the figures.
  • Fig. 5 shows a cross section through the (separated) wire holder.
  • E1 denotes a plane in which the receiving opening 10 is located when the wire holder is fixed as intended on the component 12. In the present case, this plane is also referred to briefly as "plane of the receiving opening”.
  • Fig. 6 shows a longitudinal section through the wire holder, in turn, the plane E1 is designated.
  • the connecting element 4 is designed such that it is not circular in a section along the plane E1. In particular, it may be designed so that it defines a rectangular shape, for example a square shape, in this section. In this way it is possible that the wire holder can be fixed to the component 12 "twist-proof" with only one connecting element.
  • Fig. 7 shows a partial cross section of the wire holder;
  • the connecting element 4 expediently has a web 41, which assumes its origin 43 on the contact element 2.
  • Fig. 8 shows a plan view of the wire holder, wherein with E2 another level is designated, the sectional plane of the Fig. 7 equivalent. The further plane E2 is thus oriented perpendicular to the plane E1 of the receiving opening.
  • the web 41 is advantageously shaped so that it tapers convergently from its origin 43.
  • the web 41 may be formed in a further section along the further plane E2 Y-shaped or (not shown in the figures) V-shaped.
  • a Y-shape is particularly advantageous because it is particularly material-saving for a given stability.
  • the connecting element 4 also has at least one locking arm 45 which is disposed at an end portion 47 of the web 41, which is opposite to the origin 43;
  • the latching arm 45 may be articulated there resiliently.
  • the locking arm 45 is provided for locking the wire holder from a further, the first-mentioned side opposite side latching against a further edge region of the receiving opening 20. This is exemplary in Fig. 4 to recognize; There, the locking arm 45 engages against an edge region of the receiving opening 10, which faces the inside of the lamp pan.
  • the latching arm 45 further preferably has a, in Fig. 5 designated, inner edge 451, which is intended to be brought against a peripheral edge portion of the receiving opening 10 in abutment. This allows a particularly secure fit of the wire holder when it is fixed to the component 12 as intended.
  • a further latching arm 45 ' is particularly advantageously provided, which is designed mirror-symmetrically to the first-mentioned latching arm 45.
  • the connecting element 4 is preferably formed with the latching arm 45 or with the latching arms 45, 45 'so that it can be inserted into the receiving opening 10 for fixing the wire holder to the component 12 from the first-mentioned side, so that the latching arm 45 doing so by interacting with the edge of the Receiving opening 10 is bent toward the web 41 and then, as soon as the wire holder is in the intended relative position to the component 12, due to the inherent elasticity of the connecting element 4 again pivots away from the web 45 away, in the intended for fixing detent position.
  • the contact element 2 may have a concave surface, wherein the origin 43 of the web 41 is arranged in a central region of the concave surface 21.
  • the concave surface may be concave to the plane E1 of the receiving opening 10.
  • the abutment element 2 is pressed against the first-mentioned edge region of the receiving opening 10 when the wire holder is fixed to the component 12.
  • This allows a particularly secure fit of the wire holder on the component 12.
  • this allows a particularly good sealing of the receiving opening 10 against dust, other particles or the like.
  • the interior of the lamp pan can be protected in this way, so that the lamp can be designed overall with a higher protection class.
  • the contact element 2 is shaped so that it surrounds the receiving opening 10 annularly and thereby sealingly surrounds the edge region when the wire holder is fixed as intended on the component 12.
  • the wire holder can be made of plastic; As a result, it has a certain inherent elasticity, whereby the said seal can be formed particularly well sealed.
  • the contact element 2 has a diameter which is at least twice as large, preferably at least three times as large as the diameter of the connecting element 4.
  • This makes the wire holder particularly resistant to torque can be designed, resulting for example in a robot-assisted insertion of the wire 20 can. This also makes it possible to achieve a particularly good tilting safety of the wire holder.
  • Component 12 preferably has a corresponding receiving opening 10, which is shaped so that a rotation of the connecting element 4 in the receiving opening 10 is prevented.
  • the receiving opening 10 may have the shape of a rectangle or an ellipse. It can also be designed as a slot.
